The Protector

Chapter 1616

The temperature in the surrounding air took such a nosedive that it left everyone shuddering.

They looked distraughtly at Levi, concerned for his fate, and to their horror, Levi continued to be snarky.“Yeah, that’s exactly what I said.”

“That I’m unfit to teach?”

Avery’s inflection elevated until it sounded like a peal of rolling thunder that threatened to rip the skywide open.novelbin

Rumble…

The ground began to tremor and the whole of Wildefield trembled alongside it, leaving everyone in astate of disorientation.

Rustle…

More terrifying was the formless energy which emanated from Avery’s body, which diffused in everydirection and ripped the visibly dense vegetation of the bamboo forest around Wildefield to shreds.

Its sphere of influence kept expanding until ten miles of the forest all around became leveled out.

Not only that, the skies of Wildefield were blackened by the rolling dark clouds and a storm stirred onthe brink.

Zoey and Mia were both dumbstruck.

As much as they were beginning to understand the martial arts, never before had they witnessed theawesome might of a Rank Five Supreme class fighter.

If he could alter the weather by his aura alone, it would be unfathomable what would happen if hebroke into action.

Rumble…

Reverberating his palm swiftly, Avery conjured a tempest around it which grew in intensity, sendingstrong drafts sweeping in every direction and threatening to pull everyone up and into the air.

The storm grew until it almost seemingly devoured all of Wildefield.

“Now, am I qualified?” Avery addressed Levi while he was manipulating all this in a show of force just todemonstrate his own prowess.

Levi’s eyes narrowed, but he remained undeterred.

As he was about to respond, Forlevia’s voice rang out, “Mr. Fairclough! Daddy!”

The judicious child was afraid that her father and master would get into a fight.

“Evie!” replied both men in unison before Avery rescinded his powers.

“Not too bad so far! But Evie’s growing up fast, so I shall be taking her away in a few months. You won’tbe able to instruct her any more then, lest you wind up squandering her talent!”

Levi then lifted Forlevia into his own arms and turned to leave.

“The impudence!”

The rest of Avery’s disciples were positively incensed at this ordinary man who dared provoke theirexalted teacher, and a few of them harbored the impulse to kill off Levi.

“There’s no need to get all worked up over a mere man!”

Avery waved them off nonchalantly.

“Huh?”

Everyone was taken aback by their master for whom taking a life of a person was no different fromstamping out an ant, as he was acting out of character.

In the end, he decidedly put up with this for the sake of Forlevia.

“But Mr. Fairclough, how could we maintain our dignity in Wildefield with him taunting us like this…”

Avery’s most senior disciple, Helios Ginger, was then sent sprawling with a backhand before he couldfinish.

“Are you trying to tell me what to do?” came Avery’s chilling voice.

“I dare not, Mr. Fairclough!”

Helios fell onto his knees before he wiped the blood from the corner of his lips with gritted fists and furyin his eyes.

Previously, he was widely known as the brightest talent in Wildefield and respected throughout the cityas Avery’s most beloved senior disciple.

That changed with the arrival of plucky little Forlevia, who drew away everyone’s attention and led himto become overlooked and now even beaten by his own master.

“No! Wildefield is mine, and I shall not have it taken by some meddlesome child!”
